Financial incentives, as an intervention in behavioral therapy, have been proven to be beneficial in many health behaviors, such as drug addiction treatment, long-term antiviral therapy, and the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. At present, typical financial incentive schemes mainly include commitment contracts and lottery-based models. Key factors in the design of such interventions include the adaptability of behavioral economic principles and medication behavior, the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of design scheme, and the acceptability of intervention population. Although financial incentives have accumulated rich experience in health behavior interventions abroad, research on medication adherence remains limited, with existing intervention scheme design and mechanism constraints, and their effectiveness potentially varying across different cultural and social environments. China should explore practical models of financial incentives to enhance medication adherence, considering patients’ medication patterns and socio-cultural factors.

Objective:To construct an individualized nomogram prediction model for predicting the risk of the occurrence of covert hepatic encephalopathy (CHE) in patients with liver cirrhosis.Methods:325 cases of liver cirrhosis admitted from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected as the study subjects. Patients were divided into training ( n=213) and validation ( n=112) sets using a cluster randomization method. The risk factors for CHE occurrence in patients with cirrhosis in the training set were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. A prediction model related to the nomogram was established. Results:Independent risk factors for the occurrence of CHE in patients with cirrhosis were a history of hepatic encephalopathy, co-infection, gastrointestinal bleeding, severe ascites, prothrombin time ≥16 seconds, high total bilirubin, and high blood ammonia levels ( P<0.05). Nomogram model validation results: The model had a net benefit for the training and validation sets, with C-indices of 0.830 (95% CI: 0.802-0.858) and 0.807 (95% CI: 0.877-0.837), respectively, within the range of 0-96%. The calibration curves of both sets were evenly close to the ideal curves. The AUCs for the ROC curves in both sets were 0.827 (95% CI: 0.796-0.858) and 0.811 (95% CI: 0.787-0.836), respectively. Conclusion:Patients with cirrhosis have many risk factors for CHE occurrence. The nomogram model constructed based on these risk factors possesses a good predictive value for assessing CHE occurrence in cirrhotic patients.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of brucellosis in Yan'an City, and to provide a theoretical basis for scientifically formulating prevention and control measures for brucellosis.Methods:A descriptive analysis method was used to analyze the general information, epidemiological characteristics of confirmed brucellosis cases at General Hospital of Yan'an Second Medical Group from 2019 to 2023. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors for brucellosis infection in the population.Results:From 2019 to 2023, a total of 301 cases of brucellosis were confirmed, and the number of cases in each year was 1, 7, 85, 85 and 123 cases, respectively. There were 231 males and 70 females, with a gender ratio of 3.3 ∶ 1.0. The patients were mainly aged between 15 and 64 years old (88.70%, 267/301), with a higher incidence in summer and autumn (36.55%, 110/301; 30.23%, 91/301). The occupation was dominated by farmers (62.98%, 182/289). The area with the highest number of cases was Ansai District (20.67%, 62/300), followed by Baota District (19.33%, 58/300) and Zhidan County (17.67%, 53/300). The results of multivariate logistic analysis showed that contact with livestock and unprotected contact were risk factors for brucellosis infection ( OR = 2.81, 6.75, 95% CI: 1.14 - 5.98, 1.23 - 15.72, P < 0.05). Conclusions:From 2019 to 2023, the number of brucellosis cases in Yan'an has been increasing year by year, with a higher incidence among young and middle-aged people. Summer and autumn are the high incidence seasons for the disease, and Ansai District, Baota District, and Zhidan County are key areas for brucellosis prevention and control in Yan'an City. Failure to take protective measures when in contact with livestock can increase the probability of brucellosis infection.

To explore prognostic factors in intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity (MRD<0.1%,MRD-)receiving autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT).A total of 59 intermediate-risk AML patients with MRD-were treated with auto-HSCT from January 2015 to September 2021 at Affiliated People′s Hospital of Ningbo University. The clinical data and laboratory results were collected retrospectively. Efficacy, clinical outcome and prognostic factors were analyzed. Univariate analysis was conducted by using log-rank test, the multivariate analysis by Cox proportional risk model.Among 59 patients, there were 27 males and 32 females with median age of 55 (31-69) years old.The median follow-up was 761(317-1 861)days. The 2-year overall survival (OS) rate and event-free survival (EFS) rate were 76.1%±11.4% and 73.4%±11.6% respectively.The univariate analysis showed that age older than 50 years, TET2 gene mutation (TET2 +), achieving MRD negativity over 30 days (MRD 30+) were unfavorable factors of OS ( χ2=6.20, 33.20, 7.18; P=0.013,<0.001, 0.007). TET 2+, WT1 gene mutation (WT1 +), CD34 +cells<2×10 6/kg, MRD 30+were negative factors of EFS ( χ2=17.29, 4.47, 3.94, 9.393; P<0.001, 0.035, 0.047, 0.002).Multivariate analysis showed that MRD 30+, TET2 + were independent prognostic factors of OS and EFS (OS: HR=9.251, 25.839, P=0.036, 0.001;EFS: HR=5.851, 9.199, P=0.043, 0.002). Intermediate-risk AML patients with MRD 30+or TET2 + have very poor prognosis after auto-HSCT. Alternative regimens should be investigated.
